You can pretty much imagine how that went. Palin, who <a href=\"http:\/\/gripernews.blogspot.com\/2008\/10\/stuff-i-didnt-get-to-102108.html\" target=\"_BLANK\">blows questions posed by elementary school kids<\/a>, seems only to be able to handle the &#8220;why are you so awesome?&#8221; or the &#8220;why does Barack Obama suck?&#8221; questions. She found a sympathetic microphone in Dobson&#8217;s studio. Let it not be said that Sarah Palin doesn&#8217;t do the God talk as well as anyone, but &#8212; to be honest &#8212; that&#8217;s not extremely hard to do.<\/p>\n<p>Although, even in this interview, she screwed up a little bit, saying that John McCain supports the entire GOP platform &#8212; he doesn&#8217;t. Then again, the way he reverses position constantly, maybe he does. Who knows? Still, the last time anyone checked, he was against three of the planks:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The platform calls for a constitutional ban on gay marriage, an issue McCain says should be left to individual states. Similarly, the platform seeks a constitutional ban on all abortions; again, McCain supports allowing states to decide the question. McCain supports research using embryonic stem cells, which the platform opposes.<\/p>\n<p>Palin called it a &#8220;strong platform&#8221; and told Dobson, &#8220;They are there, they are solid, we stand on them and, again, I believe that it is the right agenda for the country at this time.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>What the hell, what&#8217;s three more flip-flops? Let&#8217;s give her the benefit of the doubt and say she&#8217;s right. For all we know, she is. It wouldn&#8217;t be the first time McCain had reinvented himself.<span class=\"fullpost\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Of course, Palin was speaking to the completely brainwashed. The religious right is known for neither their firm grasp on reality nor their skepticism. If you tell them that something&#8217;s true, while talking about God enough, they&#8217;ll believe it. It&#8217;s a small step from convincing people that evolution&#8217;s a crock to convincing them that the world is flat. They are the willingly gullible; those who give up their minds to their favorite authority figures, those who suffer from self-inflicted madness. These people will buy anything.<\/p>\n<p>Well, anything except one thing.<\/p>\n<p>In the interview, Palin was asked if being behind in the polls bothered her. &#8220;To me, it motivates us, makes us work that much harder,&#8221; she said. &#8220;And it also strengthens my faith, because I&#8217;m going to know, at the end of the day, putting this in God&#8217;s hands, that the right thing for America will be done at the end of the day on Nov. 4. So I&#8217;m not discouraged at all.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The one thing these right wing, Bible-brainwashed people <em>won&#8217;t<\/em> believe on November 5th is that God has chosen Barack Obama. No. Freakin&#8217;. Way. Palin puts this &#8220;in God&#8217;s hands,&#8221; speaking of His &#8220;perfect will,&#8221; but if McCain-Palin loses on election night, the religious right <em>won&#8217;t<\/em> get down on their knees and thank the Lord for His perfect selection. Oddly, God&#8217;s will is never contrary to their own. They worship their leaders, who in turn worship themselves and project their own ambitions on some crazy-assed, senile old god. God&#8217;s perfect will is sometimes imperfect &#8212; and then you wind up with a Democrat in the White House.<\/p>\n<p>So it&#8217;s not &#8220;in God&#8217;s hands,&#8221; it&#8217;s in ours. We the people are the Electoral Gods and the Electoral Gods are displeased. We&#8217;ve seen the torture and war and crimes committed by the last president chosen by the perfect god and, Lo, it is <em>not<\/em> good. We see the world economy in shambles, our international reputation destroyed, and our world warming and we finally wise up. These people aren&#8217;t any holier, they aren&#8217;t any more just, they&#8217;re just crazier.<\/p>\n<p>For a very, very long time, we&#8217;ll be able to use Bush as a bad example. Want to privatize Social Security? Well, Bush wanted that, so it must suck. Want to invade a country based on mere suspicion? That&#8217;s there&#8217;s what you call your &#8220;Bush doctrine&#8221; &#8212; it&#8217;s stupid, we have proof. After decades of work, the religious right finally got the <em>exact<\/em> president they wanted and he was unbelievably blowful. We tried it your way guys&#8230; It didn&#8217;t work. Now go away.<\/p>\n<p>It may be that the only good thing that the Bush presidency accomplished was that it discredited these fools.<\/p>\n<p>Still, they aren&#8217;t going away. Which, I suppose, is almost a good thing. They&#8217;re going to get even crazier after November 5th, because the choice of their incredibly weak god was rejected by the Electoral Gods. It&#8217;s not really a fair fight, since we have the advantage of being real. They&#8217;re going to be meaner, they&#8217;re going to be crazier, and they&#8217;re going to shriek louder. Which, of course, only makes them look even <em>less<\/em> attractive. You think the people at McCain rallies are angry mobs now? Just wait until there aren&#8217;t any more McCain rallies. &#8220;Come join the rabid, foaming, gibbering lunatics!&#8221; isn&#8217;t all that great a recruiting poster.<\/p>\n<p>The elections aren&#8217;t in God&#8217;s hands, Sarah. They&#8217;re in ours. And that means you&#8217;re screwed.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Terry Canaan is a former political fundraiser living and writing in  Wisconsin.
